Improvements to the Drupal.org infrastructure

By kbahey on

Updates

A few updates since the original post was made:

  • master/slave has now been implemented, and the site is more responsive.
  • A newer tracker patch is now in effect, and should be functionally the same as plain vanilla Drupal 5.x, but with less database load.

---------------------------------

The Drupal association, infrastructure team, and the Oregon State University Open Source Lab (OSUOSL) team made several changes to the Drupal.org infrastructure. Some of these changes affect how you use some drupal.org features, so please read below for more information.

Over the last few months, Drupal's web site (drupal.org) has seen explosive growth in the number of users, posts and comments, as the project gets more and more popular. This has put stress on the hosting infrastructure for drupal.org, which is community donated and generously hosted by the OSUOSL.

Drupal CCK and Views Video Tutorial

By Anonymous (not verified) on

I have seen lots of questions about new content types and how people can create views for them. So I decided to document the process of creating a content type and a corresponding view.

If you have about thirty minutes to spare then you can see how I do this.

Local FFmpeg transcoding
